I forgot just how much I hate the treadmill until yesterday. I ended up working late so it was dark by the time I got home, I didn't have anyone to run with, and it was rainy outside. Chris recently got us a key for the gym in our complex, so I decided to utilize that. I did 3 very long and hot miles in 28:45. The entire time I was face-to-face with a woman on an elliptical, and I was watching some really horrible Spanish soap opera (Unfortunately... or maybe in this case fortunately...I do not understand Spanish.)
After finishing, I made sure to stretch, went home, showered, ate, and went to bed. Pretty exciting stuff huh?
I'm off to work. Have a great day!
This blog was started as a way of keeping myself motivated to keep working out, and the blog has been successful in that aspect. I started running in 2007, and it really has transformed my life. I have discovered so many inspiring individuals through the "blog world" and many delicious recipes. I use this blog to keep track of my training and write about the fun things in life. Keep checking back to read about my training for my first marathon, in February 2011.
2 things I HATE about exercise rooms. Running while having to look at someone else and DREADMILLS. I'm with you. I'll take the outdoors anyday! :)
ReplyDeleteUgh, I hate treadmills too! Today will be day two of treadmill work for me. :/
